This was a great interview process that really allowed me to show my strengths for presentation, technical knowledge, and interpersonal skills. I had heard some nightmare stories about the hiring process, but in reality I received three offers from MSFT before finding the right job and all of my experiences were enjoyable. The best way to describe the process is to say that they are very thorough. MSFT looks for ambition, drive, energy, and expression just as much as thy look for anything else. Your ability to communicate and show excitement/enthusiasm for the position is critical. This is a company full of type-A entrepreneuers, so you really need to be able to express yourself. If you do, then you will find an EXCELLENT place to work that really takes care of their employees.

4-5 rounds of interviews, some were with HR and the last one was a back-to-back interview with around 3 different members including solution architects and people working in tech sales
